Export or Share?

Hi,
After reading numerous posts and answers, I need some basic guidance. Have an iMovie 09 movie w/stills. Fixed the pixelated stills by sharing into Media Browser - stills came out sharp as a tack in the movie <but> the video quality was disappointing.
What gives the best video quality without pixilated stills? Share or Export - share to what, or export to what in order to make a DVD with .iDVD? Special settings?
Thanks,
Stuart

Are you saying that while importing, iMovie 09 changes the DV codec and FCE/FCP does not?
The consensus seems to be that iMovie '08 used single-field processing for editing manipulations. For many, this was unacceptable. Still waiting for test results to come in regarding iMovie '09. (I have not had a chance to run any new tests as iWeb forced me to re-publish all of my web sites and while the first four went okay, I have 25 GBs of multimedia on just the one that has been re-publishing since 19:30 last night.) In any case, iMovie HD, FCE, and FCP all use both fields for sure when editing.
I don't think it's unreasonable to think that a project should be able to be exported from iMovie back to the same type of device it originally came from. I'm not an engineer, but why not!
And I assume most people would also consider it reasonable too -- i.e., "if you can do it for one, why can't you do it for everybody?" For one thing, you would need encoders for each variant of each codec used by each of the manufacturers which may or may not vary by camcorder model, as well as, keeping up with changes and virtually all of them not supported by the QT structure. Would you care to take on this responsibility? (Take a look at the QT forum complaints following release of QT 7.6 -- and this is Apple's own multimedia software.)

Export gives "Unable to create" error,Can't EXPORT or SHARE modified images

I am running iPhoto 8.1.2 and I cannot export or share any images I modify.
Upon editing images (cropping or enhancing color profile), I am unable to drag and drop images to my desktop (gives a "∅" symbol) which I used to do all the time. I cannot export them - iPhoto gives an error: "Unable to create" filename error...
If I look at the "Show file" and verify the contents of the folder, none of the images I have modified appear there. If I look at "Show original file" all the original files are there but do not have my edits/cropping, etc. Where are my modified images going and how can I get to them? iPhoto seems like it is getting Alzheimer's or something...
I have tried closing and re-opened iPhoto and all the images thumbnails appear to be ok with my updated crops/enhancements. Double-clicking and opening them opens files with the correct edit/enhancements. Everything seems ok until I try to export or share any of the modified photos.
I tried rebuilding iPhoto and selecting the first 4 options but after the rebuild the problem still persists...
None of the files that I cropped/enhanced appear in the "Modified" folder for that date. There are some files there, but they appear to be files that I deleted!
So, where are my cropped/enhanced photos going??? iPhoto shows them ok in the Events, etc. but they are not in the "Modified" folder and I cannot export, drag/drop, email or share them...
This has been happening to me for awhile now and it is very frustrating. iPhoto is ok so long as I don't do any cropping or enhancing. If I do that, then it gets all screwed up...
I know that I can use something like "iPhoto Library Manager" to rebuild stuff but I don't want to lose any of my data. I have done extensive work with faces, places, attributes, names, etc...
I JUST WANT iPHOTO TO WORK LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TO AND LIKE IT USED TO!
Thanks,
Steve

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair Library permissions.
If the permissions have been mucked up somehow, it's likely that your edits have not been saved.
If the fails:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

How to correctly export and share an ADF project?

We are having some trouble with our SVN, so for the moment I am trying to share an ADF application I started developing with another developer by making a zip file of the entire application directory. We are both using JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.
My colleague extracts the zip file and opens the application jws file, but JDeveloper on his machine does not seem to be recognizing that it is an ADF application. Many of the ADF libraries are missing in the project classpath, and the design editor does not open JSF files correctly, and shows lots of errors.
Why might this be happening? What is the correct way to export and share an ADF application workspace?

First thng to try is to rename the system11.1.1.x.x.x.x folder and start jdev again. Jdev will recreate the folder, but any bad configuration inside the folder are gone and this might help to get it running again. However, all customization done in jdev are gone. It's like jdev is freshly installed.
If you try this and get the question if you like to migrate from an older version answer 'no' as you might get the error back this way.

I can't export or share my project.

Okay, I am a beginner and trying my best. But right now my best is definately not good enough.
I am using the 30-day trial of Final Cut Pro X with the latest updates. It's only limitation is the 30-day trial so I should be able to export and share my project.
After I mark the project and then click on the share-symbol->export I get the following message: "This item cannot be shared while it is still referencing media on the camera." I have also tried file->share but that menu is in gray and I can't click the options. If I click on any of the clips in the events window I can export them but that's not what I want to do.
I can't remove the trial and download it again since I can only download it once.
I suspect it might have something to do with my organizing the clips and the original files. My originals are in a folder on the desktop and that is the location I import media from into Final Cut's events.
If you have any ideas, please help me out.
Sincerely,
Edith

Thanks for your fast reply!
I had the copy to event function checked on. The folder is a regular folder that I created on my desktop. I have put other folders inside that folder, one of which is called "FILM" and contains 10 camera archive folders that the camera (Sony NEX-5N) created for me. That is how the footage was automatically uploaded onto my MacBook Pro. Each of the camera archive folders contains multiple clips.

Quicktime cant export or share!

My Quicktime can't export or share files!
The Export seems to work fine but crashes in the end, the exported file crashes every software (Quicktime, iMovie, Mail etc.)
The same problem when exporting in iMovie!
The same file converts just fine on my girlfriends mac.
What can I do?
(I run the latest system and Quicktime pro version on an iMac G5...)
Thanks in advance!
//Mikael

Yes the files opens and plays perfectly in Quicktime.
I have had this problem for a while, the file i tryed now has format and codek:
Motion JPEG OpenDML, Unsigned Integer (Whatever that means)
Todays files are from a Cannon camera but I have had similar problems in other files i.e. original iMovie files...
Previous attempts to fix this problem has been:
- Reinstalling Quicktime.
- Creating a new user on this mac.
- Reinstalling the system (keeping my user info)
None of these helped.
The error message I get includes this text "KERNINVALIDADDRESS (0x0001) at 0xc0000000 quicktime"
Greatful for any advise!

Loss of Export and Share with 7.1.3

On a G4 PowerBook FW800, I've updated to QuickTime 7.1.3.
The Export and Share items are now gone. This is QuickTime Pro and that is still rewcognized under Registration.
Any similiar experiences? Any solutions other than trying to downgrade?

My guess would be that a firewall or some other privacy filter or possibly antivirus or antispyware utility is blocking the ability of QuickTime Player to connect to Apple's server. Many such utilities and filters will erroneously consider an upgrade to an application as a new installation and so have to be reset to allow the connection again, so you may need to go into the settings of any such firewall/filter/utility and reallow QuickTime Player's connections.
Hope this helps.

Hello there, averypamby.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great information in regards to sharing/exporting your video in Motion:
Motion 5: Export a QuickTime movie
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH16623
Export your project as a movie file
Choose Share > Export Movie (or press Command-E).
Choose an export format from the Export pop-up menu.
This menu provides a list of codecs.
Choose an option from the “Open with” pop-up menu:
Do Nothing: The movie is not opened after the export is completed.
Open with QuickTime Player: The movie is opened in QuickTime Player.
Open with Compressor: The movie is opened in Compressor (if installed on your system).
Choose an option from the Include pop-up menu: Video and Audio, or Video Only.
If you’ve set In and Out points in the Timeline, use the Duration pop-up menu to choose whether to export the sequence or the portion between the In and Out points.
To specify additional Motion-specific options, click Render.
For more information about options available in the Render pane, see Render settings.
To see details about the file to be output, click Summary.
Click Next.
Enter a name and choose a location for the exported file, then click Save.
Motion renders and saves your movie.
Important:    The Export Movie command does not use background rendering, so you must wait until rendering is finished before you can continue to work in Motion.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Aperture 3 problem export (or share) photos via outlook

I have Aperture 3.5.1; Outlook for Mac 2011 version 14.3.9
When I try to export (or share) photos via email using Outlook I can see the little wheel on Aperture spin saying "exporting" however it does NOT open a new email window and I cannot find out where the photos have gone. In Aperture preferences I have set Outlook; Tiff 8 and sRGG; 300dpi and medium size.
It used to work however I simply cannot figure out the problem. I can export to desktop and move them that way but extra steps and unnecessary. Any help great appreciated.
Thanks

There are some known problems with Outlook Mac 2011 in Mavericks 10.9.1 - see: http://www.macwindows.com/Mavericks-10_9_1-fix-OS-X-email-snafus-but-Outlook-not -mentioned.html
Since I don't use Outlook as Mail client, I don't know, if the Mavericks Update to Mavericks 10.9.2 fixed this. But it cannot hurt to update, since this update included bug fixes.

How do I export or share slo-mo video

Does anyone know how to export or share the new slo-mo video on an iphone5s? Every time I try to email or text, it reverts to normal speed. I tried opning it in imovie for ios, with the same results.

That's weird. 10.0.6 has this same share path / feature. It is on the far right hand side. (In fact, my image IS from 10.0.6)
Sounds like you need to gain some basic FCPX skills. There are many tutorials on line. (And some people in this discussion group offer courses / books.) See: Tom Wolsky
That said:
You can fit the timeline to fill the screen by hitting SHIFT + Z.
You can adjust the clip appearance by clicking on this icon in the lower left:
Then, once you click it, you have several options:

Cannot export nfs-share over ipv6 in OS X 10.8

I've successfully exported my nfs share over ipv4 and can access this with a nfs-client from a linux machine. However, I'm not able to export the same share over ipv6.
In my /etc/exports I have:
/Volumes/Harddisk
-network 10.0.0.0
-mask 255.255.255.0
/Volumes/Harddisk
-network fd60:760d:98ec:8588::/64
However, from the linux client I can only mount the ipv4 share, but not the ipv6 share.
Is it possible to export nfs-shares over ipv6 in OS X 10.8?

I would suggest testing a connection from a second Mac also running 10.8 via IPv6. At least then you know both will be using compatible versions. If that does not work then it would seem to be an IPv6 issue on the Mac server.

Cannot export or share project error (-50)??

I've made a 4 minutes 31 seconds video and tried to export and exporting through quicktime then this message occurred:
Unable to prepare project for publishing
The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-50)
I've even tried to share via itunes and youtube; still didn't work. I've made only 3 videos in the past and all of them were under 5 minutes long; there's never been any problem exporting or sharing, or even finalizing. I've checked the space on the system, there's still A LOT left. I'm using iMovie version 9.0.4
I did download the most up to date iMovie, however it said that my Mac OS X version is not supported. I'm all out of solutions here...

Thanks Russ. Yes, the frame rate is different. I shoot in 720p 60 and for some reason the output of the smaller file was 29.97p. It Looks good, does it matter if I change the timeline to 29.97? Or should i just shoot in 720p30? I shoot a sports show and stream it on the web. All looks good, but I am trying to keep the file size down a bit, so the smaller bit rate seems to help. I am an old Betacam shooter and still confused by all of the different formats. Any insight will really help. www.northcoastgameoftheweek.com
Best.

Where is the file when you export from share to you tube?

1. where is the file when you export (share) to you tube?
I want to use the moivie again in another movie or DVD menu or just to save it etc. I cant't find the location after uploading to you tube.
The only way to this can not be "export to media" or devices and from there to you tube?
2. Does it make any differances for the quality on you tube wich way you choise?
thanks, bruce

Yes, i found it there. In fact; a logic place...
The second q. means the way you load upo; dirtectly from the menu share to you tube of first make a QT and from there to the sky.
I quess there must be no differance but you never know...
Thanks again.

Exporting using share to file isn't working in my iMovie.

When I use Share > File to export my movie I get the notification saying it's successful. But when I go and look in the folder I saved the movie to it's not there. How do I fix this problem and actually get the iMovie to export my project to a regular folder?

Reboot.

try a different email client see app store
use a web browser to access the email on a server

Can't export or share in Final Cut Pro X

Hi. Brand new to FCPX, this is my first project. I imported a project from iMovie, finished editing it in FCPX, and wanted to export/share it. The menu is completely grayed-out, and the keyboard command (Command-E) does nothing. What am I missing?

Me three
-- I have this problem with a project that renders perfectly and plays back in FCPx. It is showing me a '!' warning but not showing me where the problem is. I've already shared the project once.
After a client meeting I did some more colour grading and changed the sizes of all the titles -- now no share menu (greyed out).
In desparation, I resorted to screenium to copy the project whilst having FCPx play in full screen mode --- Now double mad is that!

File disappears when trying to export with "share" in FCP X...

I have FCP 10.1.3 running on a macbook pro running 10.9.4; attached to an external 8 tb drive with over 6 tb of free space.
When I try to export a project using "share," the file will start to save to my destination, but then just disappear at exactly the 50% mark. I've shared previous versions of the same file with no problem, and I have enough space to hold the file. I've tried restarting the app and the computer; I tried saving to an external drive and to my hard drive; the file will simply disappear from either destination at 50%.

This is weird. Before we proceed with other possible tests, did you try this with just one project, or with other as well? If just this one, create a new library, a new small test project and export that. Does it work? If it does, then the problem may me in the specific project or library.
A few other ideas:
1) Delete application preferences (almost always the first thing to try, as corrupt preferences have been known to cause strange malfunctions). Hold down the command and option keys while starting the application and confirm the deletion of preferences when asked.
Note: deleting preferences does not delete the application nor your media and libraries
2) Open the Console application (it is in /Applications/Utilities) and look for messages that appear around the time the export fails.
3) Try running the program from a pristine new user account and see if it exports correctly a small project there
